On February 4, after a three-year hiatus, we were finally able to hold a New Year’s archery event with guests again. Twenty-five archers from Bonn to Schwerte took to the range to shoot at the Matos, which had been specially designed for the occasion. The event required skill and good technique, but also a little bit of luck. Spectators were treated to some impressive shots. During the breaks, there was time to answer questions about Kyudo, chat, and enjoy the lavish buffet.

In the end, the Neandertaler members weren’t exactly good hosts—they swept the top three spots for the club. With 87 points, Luisa Zauft took the lead, closely followed by club veterans Uta Scholten and Reinhard Kollotzek.

In the end, everyone agreed that the event was a success. Thanks go to the many volunteers who made the event possible.

You can find photos from the day in the picture gallery under the “Club” menu item.
